His bloody ears folding under that top-hat.... classic!
Three vids a week? Well, ain't that something.
Also, seeing the LT connected to the PC Engine CD AND having the LT running and playing a game...it's like NEC was in 1991 and living in 2001. Almost reminds me of the monitors that were being plugged into PS1s, PS2s, Xboxes and GameCubes that were being seen in gaming magazines around that time.
Good video.I can't believe how many failed handhelds there are.If it wasn't for this channel, I never would've known other handhelds existed.
God I love that intro.
0:51 I love that "A Clockwork Orange" reference! 🤣
Wow, I didn't know this existed! Thanks for the video.
I hope you went and picked that Game gear back up out of the lake. I know its junk but we should give a hoot in this day and age.
Also, littering.
BAHAHAHAH!!! saw your Ainsley Harriott T-Shirt at the end! that's hilarious! xD!!
I own two. One CIB. On loose. They are beauties!!!
One of the only channels I subscribe to. You are an odd man big daddy. Enjoy all your stuff.
Very cool!!! Never seen this before!! Looks awesome!
Your hardware reviews r why I actually got into watching ur channel. The game reviews r just a plus.
Looks like gaming for seniors
Good while since I heard this amazing theme song
The video was worth it just for a glimpse at that gorgeous Ainsley Harriott shirt!!!
Its certainly a nice looking little device.
everyone has a different father, but we only have one daddy.................Top hat gaming man is our daddy of course .....
This is awesome!!! I’m so glad you brought this series back Richard. On a serious note I hope you and your family are surviving this insanity? I sincerely hope it’s not affecting you guys too negatively?
That'd be one way to feel like a big shot. Go to an expensive hotel and bust out this super-rare vintage PCE and pop in NA Magical Chase.
Not that any of us are gonna have vacation plans anytime soon.
If i start with pc-engine collecting, i would love to start with this one
Yikes! Those prices.
These sell for like 800-1200 dollars lol
"Big Daddy Tophat" gets me every time.
Finally! I love you! You know how long I've been asking for this!?!?!
6:41 i cried that's not the way i would treat the mighty game gear lol
High quality portable PC Engine? Yes please!
Just appreciation for the content you've prepared to provide. Huge fan of retro gaming and this series allows me to experience consoles that I'd probably never even know existed. Also thanks for the #stayhome entertainment. 🙏
I have missed this series
Handheld gaming consoles are cool
Looks like if someone from 2003 travelled back in time to 1991 to recreate the gba sp with technology of the era.
For some reason, when you hooked the LT up to the CD adapter, it reminded me of the Sega CDX. Maybe a video on the CDX would be interesting.
Hey, It's my favourite show
6:45
lol, Rip gamegear! That's for all those bloody batteries and smearOvision. XD
I like this serie video's ! 😃
Dope episode sir 🎩!
Oh yeah...keep ‘em comin’!
Handhelds 'Round the World intro is simply the best!
Was already chasing down a Turbo Express. Now there's another I need to find? DAMN YOU!
6:50 well done for sticking a wedge of plastic into the water system 🙄
Try reporting it like the last person did, and see where it gets you :D lol
VAT free holiday/handheld gaming video’s. Genius.
Love all the content keep it up
I wish you would have compared the MSRP of each of the systems you referenced, especially what the cost of the LT was when new. Not just a blurb that it was very expensive. Also, perhaps a complete overview of the actual system and inputs. Maybe an unboxing would have worked. Otherwise, I did enjoy the episode and learning about this console. Thanks!
Three vids a week! Yeeeeeaaaaah (that’s supposed to sound like the way you say it in your vids) keep it up top hat! Thanks a lot!
I hope that game gear was already out of commission lol.
I hope he fished it out after the take, rather than letting it pollute the river.
Excellent video
Very interesting and cool video!
Thanks for using y‘s music. God I love those games..... and their music.
damn you’re ripped bro!
I had noticed too, I wonder how wrestling in europe compares to other places - I'm thinking it's much more functional and realistic in terms of techniques than in america or mexico, which seems boring but as an mma fan I enjoy realistic action and techniques over flash and style.
@@FoxUnitNell It used to be, but sadly globalisation and the internet has slowly homogenized wrestling styles. These days what you see in the UK, US and Japan is all pretty similar. WWE even have a UK brand now with all shows ran from this country.
there was a mysterious korean handheld console named Gamate I once saw in a flea market, I bet It must have a really interesting story behind It.
Good stuff, bro.
I LOVE HANDHELDS!!!! It must have started with the original game boy... magical times. and they carry over to handhelds to this day.
I remember seeing the GT & LT in magazines. It was never available often in stores. Nor could you find games either back then. It was a weird time. I never had a handheld til the the GBA. But I did check out demo kiosks at stores. The PCEngine was the most elusive of all. Interesting to know it's legacy was ahead of the curve. Although it's competition is another story. The notion that a handheld could be more than that was amazing.
Even now it's like a time capsule well worth visiting, if it's price was not too high. But for those that do own one, it definitely was a treasure. Thinking about it, how much space those HUCards could handle / data / audio / and visuals were as crisp as any Nintendo, or Sega based game. Then CD.. that took it to another level and then it failed...
Most recently I bought Castlevania Requiem Dracula X & SOTN bundled together digitally. And marvelling over the fact I have never played the PCE version of Dracula X ROB. It is a refreshing, and challenging nostalgic trip worth taking. It doesn't feel real.
But to just think what it took back then to release it on the PCE, in limited quantity. But a solid title. I miss that kind of design, you obtain a product that you play, and are rewarded for achieving goals. It may push you to your limits, but it is a worthwhile experience.
I wish games now had more polish, day one the entire game is there. Not some gimmicky letdown that you have to patch anywhere from 20 to 50+GB just to play it. And it was tested, and credits were a reward that meant something.
Down vote for throwing classic hand held in the River
Don't even have to ask. Top Hat got it like that.
Question :D
is it have to hold ?
FX compart to the first GB :)
looking for wear to more EPs of this
i Love it :D
I remember seeing this on High Score Girl. I was surprised I hadn't seen it before, it was a big deal.
You are certainly prolific! It would seem hard enough to do two videos per week!
Now I’m curious on what are your top pce games guys? I never own a pce console and just started playing on my gaming tablet. Atm I like playing the bonk’s adventure series and air zonk, I’m using Robert Boglias emulators available on the playstore.
Good video man ,I knew there were the GT but I didn't hear about the LT.
Dug it but are there more handheld devices to be covered? What's left, Tiger Electronics?
Love the LT and this video. But kissing the box at a convention is a bit disturbing, and would be even without the pandemic.
TIL: top hat gaming man is fucking jacked holy shit.
Top hat gaming CHAD.
A handheld that can be bundled with a home console, NEC was way ahead of their time. Lucky for Nintendo that there is already a technology for the Switch.
Idk why but your content is fucking good lol
Can you look at Yoshi's Safari🦖
Trully advanced to its time. If someone produced something similar nowadays (Analogue pocket + pc engine adaptor?) would be well received by retro enthusiasts.
You sound like one of the guards from the original fable. Take that as you will.
You fellas think big daddy Top is a knickers sniffer??
does it have a video out? or can you only game on the included screen?
I loved the video but I got two ideas for future episodes of HATW, Pokémon Mini and the Atari Touch Me, and yes the Touch Me was a real Atari product from the 70’s.
Ideas are great, but they only get you so far...
You can't do an episode of "Handhelds Around the World" without... you know... an actual handheld to bring around the world?
Do you currently possess a working Atari Touch Me that you can lend him?
If so please, by all means, let him know!
Otherwise, well, you might be better advised to keep your ideas to yourself...
COOOOL
Whether or not you've covered the C64 portable I can't remember. I want to see it.
hi, anyone have the battery mod for this pc engine LT ? thanks (saw it many years ago, but can't find it anymore
No idea this existed
The Intellevision was the first 16 bit console...It's sad that more people don't know that and get it wrong.
but it hasn't 16 bit graphics. That is the point
This is really cool, reminds me of a giant GBA SP, although I think the Turbo Express is a better handheld PC Engine
Please tell me that was a prop you lobbed into the lake!
Informative. Plug it in the car. Plug it in at home. Play it everywhere....so...it is “portable” like a 1980’s portable Computer, not a laptop/palmtop device, it does not run on batteries....it is more like a Macintosh all in one computer from that era.....
You're a fighter.
God Damn top hat gaming daddy was an absolute babe wtf
Early CD Roms were cool with the windows so you could see the disc spinning round, I don't know why they later decided to make them all look like crap.
Tremendous open.
Greta T gonna get angry aboot that throwing stuff into the river . none the less Great vid buds
Think she was only ten when I shot that footage over in the US and Obama was in charge on the country.
... have you ever tipped your hat?
Dang u rage quit and tossed a Game Gear into the River????!!!
YYyyyeeeeaaaaaahhhhhhhh! That's the shit! For me it's called HARDware for a reason.
Bithead1000 is the PC Engine ambassador. Check his channel if you want to know greatness.
PC Engine Lettuce and Tomato
I hope you made it back from your travels ThGm. Covid-19 and all that. Still sounds like your stuck in a cupboard though.
WHAT TF WHY DID YOU CHUCK THAT GAME GEAR IN THE POND!??.
Wow, you're ripped from that wrestling clip. Pros are bulky but rarely defined in their muscularity like you. Also I think Konami needs to release this as a mini console/handheld like they are the pc engine mini (turbo gfx 16 mini) and add the games, game slot (!!!!), and hdmi port to this handheld to give it the mini convertion (though it's already small just doesn't have controller ports, hdmi, and onboard games).
REEEEEEEEEEEEE!! THE PC ENGINE LT IS NOT A HANDHELD!! REEEEEEEEEEEE!!
انت بطل
Why aren't you in AEW?
Dude, you're HOT!!!
I'm sorry....it's a gaming device that fits in your hands?! It has it's own little screen so it can be moved around and enjoyed almost anywhere?! How dare you Top Hat Gaming Man call this a handheld! Clearly this handheld divice is not...a hanheld machine. You have totally lost your mind and now I must be forced to unsubscribe for sharing your opinion you monster! ;)
